    Well I think there is a mod somewhere called Anti/paladin, that way you are the opposite of a paladin. But I don't know where for sure.

    If you want you can join the SP solo campaign in the TOB forums (if you have TOB), you should check it out.

    Assuming evil, I've always been partial to the half-elf fighter/thief as a character. If you are powergaming (and it sounds like you are), just maximize strength, constitution, and dexterity. Of secondary importance are intelligence (for dealing with mindflayers, although your hide in shadows should cover you, and for lore) and wisdom (for lore). Crash charisma to 3 (you get the ring early on). Take long swords and katanas as your weapons of choice and pump up dual wield to 3 stars ASAP.

    For specifically killing dragons, you'll want the various items that boost protections for whatever the dragon's main weapon is (i.e., fire for Firkraag). You'll want to use the dragon slayer sword in one hand and your weapon of choice in the other (unless you want to go defensive with that dragon shield, but I never bother). Depending on where you are in the game, I'd just use the strongest plate mail you have for fighting the dragon, as there's no point using leather armor when your thief skills will not help against dragons.

    The Anti-Paladin kit is in TDD, but I think you can also get it with the Valen mod. You might also be able to dload it from SP, so check around the BG2 files site.

    Yeah but he said he wanted to be evil, anyway, what DMC says is sound advice, but try and get some items that make you immune to terror, paralyzation and such.
